The multi-million-shilling Maungu lorry park in Taita Taveta, which was supposed to reduce congestion in the town and increase the county’s revenue collection, is underutilised.
The facility was built by the Northern Corridor Transit and Transport Coordination Authority (NCTT) at a cost of over Sh320 million.
Local leaders and logistics experts say the facility is lying idle and failing to serve its intended purposes.
